Archibald Fountain

Dad did it again, emailed me some news snippet out of SMH which triggered a memory of days past... In Hyde Park, Sydney, lies my favorite fountain. Of all fountains I've visited this is 'the one'. :-) The Archibald Fountain.

I always took visitors there, on one of the various walks I preferred when introducing Sydney to friends. Night time walks in Hyde Park was quite "adventurous" at times, when you had to dodge the droppings of the big fruit bats invading the trees in large segments of the park. 8-)

I like the fountain because of its setting and its shape, but most of all for the fan of water spouting up/outwards at the center statue.
